What keeps you going, happy, and satisfied?
For me, it’s several things:
- beautiful moments and aesthetics: art, music, fashion, nature
- reaching goals that are just out of my reach….I like a challenge
- inspiring words
- I’m sensitive to body language…I know when someone is faking affinity..or really is genuine. I appreciate the genunine.
- very open spaces: lofts, warehouses, deserts, dreams….
One of my biggest goals, which is out-of-reach at the moment, is to have a spacious condo. I want sunlight streaming in and open space to listen to loud electronic music. It’s all so simple. I have a loft-style condo in Austin but it’s just rental property now and a “business”. I will one day have a similar home here.
DREAMS–their surrealness defies explanation, but dreams are often highly symbolic and a vision to what we are really thinking. I like writing down my dreams because they help me remember beautiful moments that would otherwise be lost.
DREAM #1: Psychedelic Mary Janes
I was in Santa Barbara, alone, shopping along State Street. I went into what was a used bookstore, but it had been transformed into a minimalist store selling pop culture items, most of which were glitzy and glamorous looking, very Vegas and all. I said , “This used to be a bookstore.” On the way out, somehow I had found a pair of patent leather Mary Jane shoes. Then, I began this long journey home and I made it home and I lived in this sad little house where my bed was a mattress on the floor and the carpet was coming apart, but, I had those shoes. Must have been from watching The Wizard of Oz last weekend, or something! The shoes looked a little like this:
